New threats from this regime come at a rapid pace, and we need to move just as fast. That often means responding to emerging attacks like Trump’s map-rigging scheme before we can financially plan for them. Your donations make all of that organizing work possible. Please pitch in if you can.

Real talk (reel talk?):

BWDR recently lost a partnership that covered nearly half our operating budget, so things are suddenly very tough. If what we do has ever meant something to you, or you’ve ever thought about subscribing, now’s the time—it *truly* makes a difference.

The Gestapo violence is horrible--but it's noteworthy that almost every ICE attack that gets recorded includes bystanders at a minimum telling them they're evil, and sometimes being even more engaged. Proud that so many are standing up to the thugs.

AAR collaborative reseach grants stimulate cooperative research among scholars who focus on collaborative interdisciplinary work with scholars outside the field of religion. Apply by September 22, 6 PM ET: aarweb.org/award/collab...

SLOTKIN WANTS FARMWORKERS TO PAY THE PRICE SENATOR SLOTKIN SAYS SHE SUPPORTS WORKERS. BUT NOW SHE'S BACKING A GOP-LEAD PLAN TO CUT AND FREEZE FARM WORKER WAGES. URGE HER TO STOP NOW: +1 (202) 759-4087

In April, @slotkin.senate.gov announced her intended support for legislation that would CUT and FREEZE the wages of farm workers - one of the most underpaid professions in the US.
This is just wrong!

Call Senator Slotkin TODAY! Urge her to withdraw her support.

Avelo Airlines is profiting off Trump’s terror tactics. By contracting with DHS to run their (often illegal) deportation flights, Avelo is complicit in destroying the very same communities it relies on for its business to succeed.

Let’s make Avelo’s deportation flights too costly to continue.

2) Unequivocally show that businesses stand WITH immigrant workers and clientele, and AGAINST Trump’s secret police tactics.

Democrats must commit to opposing any GOP budget that lets Trump’s chaos and lawlessness continue unchecked.

Republicans must feel the heat from constituents who don’t want their elected officials obediently kissing Trump’s butt and rubber-stamping his descent into authoritarianism.

We need to draw attention to a new, exploding type of household debt that only recently emerged: it's called rent debt—or "back rent debt," and it didn't really exist before COVID at all. It's getting little attention in housing discourse and media coverage.

We'll explain it.
